I really wish they'd consider just leaving the legacy items out from the beginning. The toxic behavior those camps inevitably encourage just isn't worth it, especially in the crucial early months of the server's life. Plus, it's really not classic seeing so many people running around with them anyway. No one NEEDS a Guise or a Manastone to play EQ. But a lot of people apparently think they do, and almost 100% of those people are guaranteed to be complete assholes, and are definitely not the sort of players you want to cater toward.
The necessity of /list on Green should be instructive. It was a solid creative effort by the Devs to avoid a completely unmanageable, toxic fiasco at those camps on a daily basis, but it still had a ton of drawbacks and encouraged a lot of really unhealthy behavior. Given that the stated goal of Quarm leans toward quality of life over strict, diabolical adherence to What's Classic™, this seems like the sort of change that a lot of people would actually appreciate.
